Mobile Assistance: MoDe application

The ford MoDe EBike is a cleverly adapted vehicle which combines much of ford’s automobile engineering with that of an electric bike. For example the collision sensor which is very little advertised in the bike world will be able to alert riders of unseen dangers through emitting a vibration designed too spread through the frame. The bikes adaptation system shall enable riders to cover harsh varying terrain with much more ease than a non adapted bike. Ford have seemingly taken a safety orientated step into the EBike world having installed a second significant safety feature this being an LED lighting headlights and LED lighting taillights to increase the visibility of the bike at night in particular.

Following Audi’s purchase of Ducati valued at $1.2 billion, Audi has spent money on the design of bikes, targeting the development of EBikes and the general two-wheel market. This can be seen in the Audi EBike very clearly with the level of attention paid to detail and the slick carbon fiber frame. The general concept of the bike is looking into the future the bike being equipped with cutting edge technology and constructed with only the finest of materials. The Audi EBike can be compared to the most minimal amount of bikes in the world as can its hefty price tag.
